Henceforth, and in order for the passenger to make the desired departure time, he must obtain his ticket in time, either online through E-Ktel.com  or obtained from the company's offices in Chania and Rethymnon.

The company makes it clear that "each route from Rethymno to Chania and Heraklion or from Chania to Rethymno and Heraklion has 50 seats and when the occupancy of the bus reaches 100%, then the available seats are automatically closed" .
